      In this paper the author obtains the following result: Let \(H\) be a finitely generated torsion-free nilpotent group and let \(A\) be a free Abelian group of countable rank. Then the wreath product of \(A\) by \(H\) can be embedded in the skew field of fractions of a suitable chosen finitely generated torsion-free nilpotent group. Comment: To make it clear to the reader in the general ring theory, the conclusion of the above theorem should be: ``Then the wreath product of \(A\) by \(H\) is embedded in the skew field of fractions of the group ring \(\mathbb{Z} G\) where \(G\) is a suitable chosen finitely generated torsion-free nilpotent group'' (unless the author gives a definition of the skew field of fractions of a group).
